Nicomedes [1]

a Christian of some distinction at Rome, who, during the rage of Domitian's persecution, A.D. 98, did all he could to serve the afflicted followers of Christ: comforting the poor, visiting the- confined, exhorting the wavering, and confirming the faithful. For thus acting he was seized by the ferocious hand of power, sentenced as a Christian, and scourged to death; through which he passed to meet the approving sentence of his. Lord. See Fox, Book of Martyrs, p. 14.
